Have you looked at Comcast's business service? They offer static IP
and the prices are pretty good depending on what you need. Their
lowest end service is just slightly more expensive then the normal
residential service.

The best bang for you buck IMO is at the 4M down/ 768K up for $90.
Don't quote me on those numbers, but I think they're close.
